About
Small businesses and individuals—particularly in emerging and developing markets—continue to face significant barriers to affordable and efficient cross-border payments. As a result, many rely on costly or informal channels, which undermines economic growth and limits financial inclusion.

The G20 Cross-Border Payments Roadmap (2020–2027) is reshaping the global financial system, creating both pressure and opportunity for banks. By 2027, the G20’s ambition is clear: cross-border payments should be faster, cheaper, more transparent, and universally accessible.

For banks, this is more than a policy directive, it’s a strategic inflexion point. As central banks and regulators align national frameworks with the roadmap, forward-looking institutions have a unique opportunity to capture new markets, unlock fresh revenue streams, and strengthen their role in the future of global payments.
